Just how important are writing skills? That’s a question that Grammarly, which is a proofreading web application that finds and explains in-depth grammar, spelling, and punctuation mistakes, set out to answer.

Most of Grammarly’s current 4 million users are writers, students and teachers, so they are looking for authors, and of course, education focused bloggers who share the goal of improving writing. Grammarly conducted a very interesting study recently with over 400 freelancers to determine what impact writing skills have on career opportunities.
